Huh!“Something’s wrong…”Back in the main battlefield, Conrad, who was battling the exotic beast’s main body, suddenly sensed something that drew his attention, causing his actions to pause accordingly as he tried to detect what was wrong.With Conrad stopping his actions, his attacks on the exotic beast’s main body also ceased, leaving only Trevor and his men attacking alone.Noticing this, Trevor looked over at Conrad and quickly yelled at him, “Hey, why’d you stop attacking? Hurry and finish what you want to do so we can finally defeat this thing.”Unfortunately, Conrad showed no reaction to Trevor’s words. He continued to stand in place, motionless, while observing the exotic beast closely.Seeing this, Trevor swore to himself, “Damn! How dare you ignore me like this, and why the hell are you not doing anything again? If you don’t make a move I don’t think we’ll be able to hold off this beast.”Although Trevor was swearing at Conrad in his heart, he was more panicked than annoyed

Splurt!Cale coughed, bright red blood spluttering from his lips, staining the thick tree root piercing through his body like a meat skewer.Pain assaulted his senses, every nerve in his body feeling like it was being doused in a pool of lava as the urge to scream out loud came over him, burning through his lungs like he was withholding a belly full of vitriol. Yet Cale could neither find the strength to cry out in pain nor even move his body at all.It was as though all his energy and strength were being drained from within him, leaving him completely hollowed and empty inside.Mustering all the strength he had, Cale tried to lift his head to look ahead at what had attacked him. The ordinary tree sitting alone in the little creek like a harmless statue looked back at Cale—its form, initially devoid of any extraordinary characteristics, now possessed a humanoid visage on its trunk, complete with depressions on its bark for two eyes, a nose, and a mouth with which it displayed a derisi

In a mountainous region...Standing atop the highest peak was a man; not an ordinary man, no! Far from it, he was a man whose mere presence seemed to resonate with the world around him, commanding everything to be drawn toward him in a powerful display of attractive force, like a black hole causing lights and shadows to distort around him in a swirl of incomprehensible forms.Being atop that highest peak was like a declaration of his standing, showing there was no one else above him. His eyes overlooked everything, with seemingly nothing able to overcome his observation, and in that moment, his gaze pierced through several heavy layers of clouds at a certain location hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, witnessing a certain moment in which a series of events were taking place.Silently, noncommittally, he watched, a mere spectator to the unfolding events. Just then, at an unknown point in time, another figure was suddenly behind him. It was a woman, exquisite in her appearance an

An emergency meeting was called in the highest level of the Coccyx. Three individuals were meeting in the dead of night regarding a matter they had no idea would escalate to an atrocious extent.“What the hell is the problem this time? Why is there a large-scale spatial rift rapidly expanding right in the middle of the fortress?” Magistrate Yelena started out with a stern outburst, her face squeezed up like a sour grape, her displeasure evident for all to see. In contrast, Provost Yumi was much calmer, albeit secretly annoyed by the current event.She said, “In a few words, ‘Hive screwed up once again’.”Then she added, “It seems they’ve been indulged long enough, and now they think they can do whatever they like without consequence.”“Imbeciles!” Hearing this, Magistrate Yelena lost her temper, a curse rolling off her tongue in a manner that rarely occurred to her.Seething, she said through tightly gnashed teeth: “This has gone on for long enough. It’s high time we taught those wast

Huh!“Am I dreaming?”Cale’s consciousness drifted hazily in a lingering void, switching between permanence and impermanence, unable to determine what was real and what was not.His mind, like the lingering fragments of fractured memories, spun chaotically in a swirl of unmitigated chaos, causing torment and anguish to his already tortured soul.Sometimes, there were moments of clarity that only lasted for brief periods at a time, but in those times, Cale could understand everything that was happening to him and the truth of this world that lingered just beyond the veil.This world was fake!This was the truth of the world, and upon that realization, the veil was broken, and Cale successfully awakened from the quagmire.“No, this is not a dream,” Cale said to himself; his senses, clearer than ever, told him so. At this moment, his body was within the space of his other world, but Cale’s mind had ascended beyond the physical boundaries of this world, allowing him to see everything in i
